Soft corals like higher nutrients, and will grow faster with nutrients in the water, which is what hard corals do not want/like. If you have a reefer buddy, try their test kits out on your water to make sure it is not water quality.
Lighting could definately be it as well, if you are not running metal halide that would be a good explanation.

A large quick drop in phosphate levels can also stress corals and cause tissue recession and death.

Appears like the only thing you have changed is the phosban so I suspect that Harvey is right. No rapid change is readily accepted by corals. I might be tempted to try and cycle the reactor on and off - say on 1 hour off 3 and gradually increase it if possible.

I will cycle the reactor, plugged it into a timer.
I'm running 2x250MH 20000k on a 70G. Using a QuietOne4000 for the return as well as a Sieo 800 for additional flow. My Frogspawn, 2 hammers and candy canes are doing REALLY well though.
